The Daily Mail Is Getting Rinsed For Its Headline About The Finsbury Park Attacker

One man tragically died while 10 were injured and it is being treated as a “terrorist attack”. A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and the Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick said that the incident was “quite clearly an attack on Muslims”.

The first media reports were wary of describing the attack as a terror incident, as they waited for more information to come in. However, the Daily Mail sent out a bizarre tweet where they described the attacker as a ‘Clean shaven white man’. They have since changed the headline, but their original take on the incident received a lot of criticism.

It didn’t take long for the Twitter community to chime in with their criticism of the “double standards” of the Daily Mail and ask for the “clean shaven white male community” to condemn the attack, much like it often happens with the Muslim community:
